Hi Les..

my front flexi pipes are M10 fitting thread ( standard sierra calipers ) , & if my wonky memory serves me right I think they are 480mm long, tho i,ll be honest, I wish they were a tad longer.

I can double check in the morning if that,ll help? ( car not at home)

cheers
andy

You been watching the two Ronnies aswell??? the sketch ...Hoe,s ( sorry long day )

Most motor factors can supply them if you give them the type of fittings & length, ( but it will mean the motor factor might have to look at alot of hoses to find the right length for you & some don,t like this as they just know how to order a specific hose for a specific car etc....part code on a computer etc......
or Saturn supply them or you can have them "made up" by Rally design/CBS etc or a chap on LCB called Russbost (I think thats his name) sells them to order too.

cheers

Cheers Andy
ordered my rears off Russbost
stainless steel ends with "denim blue" over
ss braided ... hopefully yumyums
will order the fronts when you confirm the length
in the same color of course
when you say a bit longer would 500mm do it or a bit more than that
over to you
cheers les g
